Chapter 479 Cangwu
When Liu Jing held the winter solstice banquet in Xiangyang, Pan Jun also organized a banquet in Bushan, but there were only more than [-] people attending the banquet, which was very different from the grand occasion in Xiangyang.

This is also normal. Pan Jun is known as the governor of Jiaozhou, but he actually ruled only one county in Yulin. If it wasn't for Yu Lin prefect Wang Qiang who was willing to obey his orders, he might not have been able to get out of the Ministry of Governors even if he ordered it.

Wang Qiang was born in a merchant family, and his family was very humble, but he was brave and resourceful, resolute and decisive, which is a wonder of Wu Han.With a single soldier alone, he counterattacked tens of thousands of people in Zhangjin, overthrew his army, and beheaded him.

Wang Qiang is not only Yulin prefect, but also supervises the Jiaozhou military, and is the No. 1 authority in Jiaozhou to which Liu Jing belongs. Pan Jun is just a name in name only.

Although Wang Qiang has great respect for Pan Jun and obeys all orders, Pan Jun still feels very uncomfortable. Why come to the barren land of Jiaozhou?
Fortunately, Liu Jing quickly slaughtered Liu Biao in the north with the force of thunder, and sent his envoy to Xu.Ten days ago, good news came from Xiangyang that his position as governor of Jiaozhou had been officially recognized by the imperial court, and he was no longer just Liu Jing's private office.

Pan Jun was overjoyed, because Liu Jing's presumptuous appointment as governor of Jiaozhou, neither Shi Xie's four brothers who ruled the four counties of Jiaonan nor Shi Huang, prefect of Cangwu, would obey his orders.Now that he has the emperor's endorsement, he has finally secured the position of governor.

Pan Jun's first idea was to move the government out. Shixie's Jiaozhi County, or even Nanhai County, Hepu County, and Jiuzhen County controlled by Shijia brothers, Pan Jun would not go. He would not go to Wang Qiang's place. I feel unsatisfactory, and it will be even more difficult if I go to the territory of the Shijia brothers.

At the beginning Zhang Jin led his army to station in Yulin and Cangwu in the north, and invaded Lingling and Guiyang on a large scale. Although he was lured by Cao Cao and wanted to annex Jingnan, he also wanted to get rid of Shixie and establish a foothold in the north.

Rinan County is located in the south of Jiuzhen, and it is also a remote place in the deserted area of ​​Jiaozhou. Naturally, Pan Jun will not go there. In this way, only Cangwu County, which is next to Yulin County, remains.

Shi Huang, the prefect of Cangwu, has always been in poor health, and this year he has been plagued by various diseases. It is said that he has not appeared in public for several months.

Liu Jing and Pan Jun's original plan was to wait for Shi Huang to die of illness before taking over Cangwu County.But now that Pan Jun was the real Governor of Jiaozhou, there was no need to wait any longer.

A few days ago, out of politeness, Pan Jun sent someone to Cangwu Guangxin to inform Shi Huang that he would hand over the state governor's decision to reform Guangxin.

Then, without waiting for Shi Huang's reply, Pan Jun immediately began to organize the relocation after the winter solstice.

On the eve of his departure, Wang Qiang held a banquet at the county mansion to bid farewell to Pan Jun.

At the banquet, everyone drank to their heart's content, and when they were so excited, they danced and belonged to each other. Wang Qiang often felt humble and didn't like dancing, so he didn't belong to Pan Jun as a dancer, and only toasted him frequently.

After drinking for three rounds, Wang Qiang was a little drunk, raised his glass to Pan Jun and said, "Minister, I still don't think you should go to Cangwu alone. Shi Huang's attitude is unclear at the moment. Isn’t it dangerous? If something happens to the envoy, how can I explain to the general? I think it’s better for me to lead the troops and send you to the post.”

Wang Qiang must not be allowed to intervene in Cangwu's affairs.Pan Jun shook his head and said: "Shi Cangwu is a well-known scholar in Guiyang. He has a good reputation. Now that he is seriously ill, what evil intentions can he have? What's more, I am not alone. There are more than a hundred officials from the state and two thousand soldiers guarding me. ensure safety."

Seeing that Wang Qiang wanted to speak again, Pan Jun retorted: "You are not only a general in charge of a prefecture's military, but also the prefect of Yulin, the prefect, and the king of a county. If you still gather in the valley, it will be a rebellion, how can you move lightly at this time?"

Wang Qiang's expression darkened immediately, and he sneered, "This generation is nothing to worry about. Back then, many Qushuai and barbarians from the west of Yulin invaded Bushan with Zhang Jin. I beg you to surrender, I have beheaded them and 300 of their cronies, and their heads are still hanging by the roadside as a warning. If you dare to cause chaos, it will only add a few more heads."

"Although it's just a disease of ringworm and scabies, you have to guard against it." Pan Jun laughed, "If you are really worried about my safety, why not think that after I enter Cangwu, the border between Chen and Bing counties will be sluggish. Austrian aid." In fact, he thought it was superfluous to do so, and he only proposed it for An Wangqiang's heart.

"Okay." Wang Qiang thought for a while, nodded and said, "In case something happens, you don't have to take the risk yourself. You can pretend to be a snake in the open, and send someone to recruit me secretly. At that time, I will personally raise the army, crush Guangxin, and slaughter all the violators." inverse."

"Okay, please drink this cup to the brim." Pan Jun toasted Wang Qiang with a glass of wine.

"Please……"

The next day, Pan Jun bid farewell to Wang Qiang on the bank of the Yushui River, and then led more than [-] officials and officials to sail eastward along the Yushui River. Guangxin is about four to five hundred miles away from Bushan, and arrived in five days.

The old scriptures of the Han family: "Pass the chariot to drive, and hang the red curtains to welcome the state border."

Because Pan Jun set off on his own without waiting for Shi Huang's reply, the team that greeted him had just left Guangxin, and the two sides collided at Jindu.

"Cangwu meritorious Cao Chengan, pay homage to the envoy of Ming Dynasty." The first person led all the officials of Cangwu to pay homage.

"Your step is Chen Wenkai? You don't need to be polite, please come up." Pan Jun smiled and looked at Chen Gan. He was about forty years old, with a dignified crown and clothes, and a refined bearing. He looked like a well-educated man.

The Chen family belonged to the Cangwuguan family, and passed on Confucian classics from generation to generation. Chen Qin, the ancestor of Chen Qian, was a master of Confucian classics in the Western Han Dynasty.Chen Qin's son, Chen Yuan, seldom passed on his father's career, and was also taught by scholars.

Chen Gan was once promoted by the county as Xiaolian, and the official went to Guiyang Qujiang Chief. A few years ago, Zhang Jinbei committed crimes against Ling and Gui, and Chen Gan's Qujiang was the first to bear the brunt. If you hear his name, please be a meritorious Cao.

Chen Gan's family is crowned, and he himself has a good reputation. He is deeply respected by Cangwu Han and Yi. Only he can stabilize the situation in Cangwu after the prefect Shi Huang was seriously ill and unable to manage affairs. If he did not preside over the overall situation, Cangwu It's already messed up.

Pan Jundao: "I have heard about your great reputation for a long time, and the stability and stability in Cangwu today are all due to your single step. I am new to Guangxin, and I want to spread my mighty virtues in Jiaoyu. I must rely on talents like this step. He intends to govern with one step, and I don't know if Shi Cangwu is willing to give up his love."

Zhizhong is the right-hand man of the governor, with the most power, second only to the "half governor". Of course, Chen Gan intends to be in the middle of the government, but Shi Huang's consent is needed for this matter.

After hearing Chen Qian's answer, Pan Jun paid more attention to him in his heart, and asked, "By the way, when I was in Yulin, I heard that Shi Cangwu was seriously ill. I don't know if this is true or not?"

Chen Ganlue pondered for a while, and admitted: "It is true that the Fujun is seriously ill and cannot manage the affairs."

"Today, the world is hanging upside down, and the people are in a state of misery, but Shi Cangwu is able to guard the southern border for the country and stabilize the people. It can be said that he has contributed to the country. How can such a hero of the country not be known to the world? Gong. Of course, all the kings have the power of auxiliary wings."

As soon as Pan Jun said this, all the officials in Cangwu, including Chen Qian, were very happy.

With the support of Cangwu officials, Pan Jun entered Guangxin from the south gate. Not only more than a hundred state officials followed closely, but also [-] soldiers entered the city in a grand manner, and immediately took over the city defense.

Pan Jun first went to the official residence of the county government to visit Shi Huang, who was sick in bed. Shi Huang was only fifty this year, but he was tortured by the disease to be emaciated, with a haggard face, which made people feel sorry for him.

Chen Qian mentioned that Pan Jun would show his merits to the court. Shi Huang was very moved when he heard it. Fame, whether it is the name in front of you or the name behind you.

Shi Huang reciprocated, expressing his willingness to resign from the post of prefect of Cangwu, but Pan Jun refused. As soon as he entered Guangxin, he took the post of prefect from him. for a while.

Coming out of the official residence, Pan Jun immediately went to the main hall of the county mansion, and sent people to summon the officials under the governor's department and the officials of Cangwu County to gather in the main hall for a meeting.

Pan Jun's first order was to use Chen Qian as the governor. Later, he asked Chen Qian about the famous and talented county officials. Chen Qian recommended more than ten people in a row, and Pan Jun recruited them into the Ministry of Governors.

Although Cangwu is a large county in Jiaozhou, the prefect Shi Huang used to comfort the Han and barbarians with generosity, and was not good at martial arts, so he only had three thousand soldiers in the county.Pan Jun brought [-] soldiers with him this time, half of them participated in the war with Zhang Jin, and easily annexed the soldiers of Cangwu County.

So far, Pan Jun has completely controlled Cangwu, and the two counties of Yulin and Cangwu have been connected into one, dominating the North, and finally there is some momentum.

The next step is to work hard, accumulate strength, and then Xu Tu crosses the south.
